Buy Crushed Stone in South Dakota

Crushed stone is sold by the ton at Gravel Monkey, not by the bag. You choose the product and quantity on the website, and the price is calculated from your ZIP code. A dump truck brings the load to your address across South Dakota.

The right crushed stone does more than fill a hole. It drains water, resists shifting in freeze-thaw cycles, and stays put under traffic. Getting the size right matters.

What Weather and Soil Mean for Crushed Stone in South Dakota

Across the cities where Gravel Monkey delivers in South Dakota, annual precipitation runs from about 20 to 29 inches. That range means drainage matters more in the wetter parts of the state. Crushed stone with good drainage, such as #57, helps prevent water pooling and frost heave.

Freezing days range from about 157 to 181 days a year below 32F, depending on location. Most of the state sits in the severe band for ground freezing. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer. A well-compacted crushed stone base resists that movement.

The soils in the served areas are mostly hydrologic groups C and B. These soils drain moderately, so a deeper base of crushed stone is often needed to keep water away from the surface. The South Dakota Department of Transportation runs a spring load-restriction program that limits heavy truck loads during thaw periods. This can affect delivery timing in the spring, but Gravel Monkey coordinates with drivers to adjust scheduling when restrictions are in effect.
